Looking great there Alan, the colouring looks much better with more muted tones. The damage looks good too. I like this very much and look forward to seeing more as this develops.

LOL, yep, I see you found out the hard way too...so did I. Bend, slop, drop. Do you know something, I reckon that when this is boarded properly and finished off it could very well knock spots of my Bismarck and U-boat wreck. I mean that too.

Why thank you kind sir, appreciate it. I have had a few folk wanting me to make them for fish tanks, but they don't want to know when I tell them it will cost them £50+. They seem to forget that as well as buying the model and my time in making the thing I have to use non-toxic glues, paints and sealant...if not we get fish going belly-up...once the price is told they look at me as if I am daft.

That's the problem with people today they don't factors in the labour and cost of things but what they should think about is how much cheeper it is to have something unique and what is basically a one off , if they went to a company and asked for the same thing it would cost double the price

And the rest mate, but, that's up to them, stopped faffing around after them The commission build on the Sub seems to have gone off the boil, not that I am bothered at the moment as I am struggling.
